Abstract (en)

An aircraft navigation light (8; 9) with integrated redundancy having at least a selected minimum light output, comprises a first light source (81; 91); a second light source (82; 92); and a common optical element (84; 94), which is configured for shaping an output light intensity distribution (89; 99) of the aircraft navigation light (8; 9). The light emitted by each of the first light source (81; 91) and the second light source (82; 92) is modified by the common optical element (84; 94). Each of the first and second light sources (82; 92) has an individual light output capacity, wherein the individual light output capacity of each of the first and second light sources (82; 92) alone is sufficient for providing the selected minimum light output (89; 99) of the aircraft navigation light (8; 9).
